Southlake Blvd. in Southlake Crossing at the southeast corner of W. Southlake Blvd. and Davis Blvd. Development Details • The applicant is requesting approval of a site plan to add a patio and trellises in front of the existing building (previously occupied by Taco Bell) and to reconfigure the drive -thru. The applicant has received approval of a building permit from City staff for improvements to the building fagade, including modifications to the entry feature and the addition of window awnings. The addition of the patio and trellises and the reconfiguration of the drive -thru require that a site plan be approved by City Council. • The applicant stated they would start construction mid - August and open in October 2011. The reconfiguration proposed for the drive thru would offer a secondary entrance. With that modification, the existing trash enclosure area would be reduced by 50% to free up room for stacking. This location is unique in that it will be company developed and company operated. We plan to take great pride in the appearance of this location. QUESTIONS 1 CONCERNS With the drive thru reconfiguration, will drivers in the other lane be able to see those trying to enter? o Yes. We are counting on considerate action of people allowing turns. • What are the trellises going to be made of? o They will be a dark brown stained cedar wood. We may also install misters for the Summer months. Case No. Attachment E ZA11 -031 Page 1 • Where is the patio located? o In the front of the store facing Southlake Boulevard. The trellises will offer a nice shaded area for customers to relax with their coffee and pastry. • Why even have a drive thru? o It is a huge convenience for customers. The drive thru exists today. • Trellis poles often times get vandalized. Will you be applying graffiti protection? o This store will have plenty of glass area, as well as video surveillance and great lighting. I don't foresee a problem with vandalism. • Did the original site plan go to SPIN? o No. Since the building is existing, our plan is in compliance, and the zoning is appropriate, the site plan was administratively approved. • Is the color scheme going to be typical of Dunkin Donuts? Pink? o Our approved plan shows some orange, neutral colors and very little pink in the signage. This being a company operated store, we are planning high end finishes in the interior. • 1 wish you would spend more money on the exterior. You are lucky to be moving into an existing building. This would never fly if built from the grass. This is an important corner for our city. o We looked at this location and our options. A complete scrape would not be viable. The project is doable in the existing building. It will look good. We are very proud of this project as it is the first company developed and operated location. • What are you going to do about the landscaping? o We will clean it up and do some general upgrades. • When you purchased the property, did you include a parking participation agreement? 0 1 am not sure there will be a need for that. o I am concerned about your grand opening causing traffic and parking problems. You might want to talk to the property owner. • Personally, I would like to see more stone and less orange so it will fit in to what Southlake looks like. o We will make this store look nice. The monument sign will be redone very nicely; we are going to use stucco; we are downsizing the trash enclosure; and, upgrading the landscaping. How many employees will you have? o About 6. • What will be the hours of operation? 0 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. • Will you be making the donuts on -site? o Yes. We will have a full production kitchen.

THESE STIPULATIONS ARE HEREBY MADE CONDITIONS OF SITE PLAN APPROVAL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY AMENDED BY THE CITY COUNCIL. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR NEED FURTHER CLARIFICATION, PLEASE CONTACT RICHARD SCHELL AT (817) 748 -8602 OR DENNIS KILLOUGH AT (817) 748 -8072. The Corridor Overlay district requires exposed structural support columns to be constructed of, or clad in, the same material as the principal structure. Architecturally significant columns (e.g. fluted, etc.) may be used. A variance request letter has been submitted. 2. The number of required ADA accessible parking spaces is incorrect in the Site Data Summary Chart. One space is shown to be required, but two spaces are required for over 25 total parking spaces in the lot. 3. Provide fire lanes in compliance with the City Fire Code. Show and label the fire lane width and any curve radii. Also label any radius of any curbs adjacent to the fire lane. 4. Note the City approved benchmark used for topographical information. Informational Comments: No review of proposed signs is intended with this site plan. A separate building permit is required prior to construction of any signs. A variance to the Sign Ordinance No. 704, as amended, was approved by City Council on May 17, 2011. The proposed landscape plan meets the landscape requirements that were in place when the building was constructed. The proposed improvements to the site do not initiate requirements for additional bufferyard or interior landscape plantings. The applicant is proposing to relocate the existing shrubs in front of the building where the trellises are proposed to the west side of the parking between the building and the drive - through. The applicant is also proposing to replace the shrub hedgerow in front of the parking spaces facing West Southlake Blvd. and Davis Blvd. For all developments requiring a City Council approved site plan, a five -foot wide concrete sidewalk is required along all public streets. However, the City Engineer has determined that the proposed improvements are not roughly proportional to the sidewalk requirement. All mechanical equipment must be screened of view right -of -ways and residential properties in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance No. 480, as amended. All lighting must comply with the Lighting Ordinance No. 693, as amended with regard to type of lighting, intensity, glare and spill -over. Case No. Attachment F ZA11 -031 Page 1 All development must comply with the Drainage Ordinance No. 605 and the Erosion and Sediment Control Ordinance No. 946, as amended. Development must comply with all requirements in Zoning Ordinance No. 480, Section 43, Overlay Zones. The applicant should be aware that prior to issuance of a building permit a Plat must be processed and filed in the County Plat Records, a fully corrected site plan, landscape plan, irrigation plan, and building plans, must be submitted for approval and all required fees must be paid. This may include but not be limited to the following fees: Park Fee, Perimeter Street Fee, Water & Sewer Impact and Tap Fees, and related Permit Fees.
